About The Green Knight
The Green Knight is a five-reel slot from Play’n Go, part of the developer's Arthurian Legend series that also includes The Sword and the Grail. The slot has an impressive design, including various characters from the legendary stories, with the main focus being the Green Knight, Sir Gawain.
The gameplay is interesting here, even in the base game, thanks to multiplying wilds that can add multipliers of up to 100x to any payline, which can really alter the win potential of the slot. With a suitably medieval soundtrack in the background, this is an intriguing, immersive slot that offers two free spins features that can trigger simultaneously, and a max win potential of up to 10,000x bet.

The Green Knight Bonus Features
The base game of The Green Knight is headlined by its wild symbols. There are six wild symbols in play here, the first is a normal wild which will substitute for anything bar the scatter to complete a winning combination.
The other five wilds fulfil the same purpose, but each has a multiplier attached, worth 2x, 5x, 10x, 25x, and 100x, respectively. If any of these wild symbols play a part in a winning payline, the displayed multiplier will be added to the win.
Land three or more scatter symbols for an instant payout of up to 100x your bet (for five symbols) as well as five free spins. A multiplying wild will land on each spin, with each multiplier landing in turn, from the 2x multiplying wild on the first spin to the 100x multiplier on the fifth, raising the chance for big wins with every free spin.
During this feature, the usual green knight symbol is replaced with an enhanced version, if two or more of these land on the reels you will trigger the Shield Spins feature. This will trigger another five spins. Whichever multiplier was in play when you triggered the Shield Spins, say the 25x multiplier, if you were on your fourth free spin, will remain active throughout the Shield Spins, so in this example, all wins would be subject to a 25x multiplier on each Shield Spin.
When the five Shield Spins are completed, you will return to your remaining free spins, meaning it’s possible to trigger multiple Shield Spins features from one Free Spins feature.
21.co.uk Review Of The Green Knight
The Green Knight is an impressive Play’n Go slot thanks to the multiplying wilds that can change the dynamic of the base game dramatically. If you trigger the Free Spins feature and then one (or more) Shield Spins feature, the win potential gets very big here.
The design is great, keeping the slot unique despite the numerous similarly themed titles there are available.
